The synthesis capability of some amino acids is lost during the insect evolution, and hymenopteran parasitoids can make up for these deficiencies by altering free amino acid concentrations in host.

An epithelium modelled as an active, nematic surface can display flattening, budding, and tubulation morphogenetic events, which are observed during development in biological organisms.

In a synthetic system, spreading of chromatin-mediated silencing to nearby genes depends on distance and can bypass genetic insulators, while reactivation after release of gene targeting is coordinated by insulators and promoters.

BehaviorDEPOT is a general purpose behavior analysis software that will meet the needs of thousands of behavioral neuroscientists who need accurate, flexible open-source software to analyze naturalistic behaviors and align then with neural data.

Cell cycle phase-specifically induced long non-coding RNAs regulate cell proliferation by modulating crucial cell signaling pathways.

Stress-regulated secretion of an intestinal peptide positively regulates the antioxidant response by promoting neuropeptide release from the nervous system, defining a gut-to-brain-to-gut endocrine axis in the oxidative stress response.

Mechanical instabilities are shown to underlie the development of bacterial biofilm morphology, suggesting an ancient origin for mechano-morphogenesis, which is known to drive developmental processes in tissues in higher organisms.

An analysis of enhancer activity during mouse cerebellar development provides an invaluable resource for studying gene expression regulation by enhancers in the developing cerebellum and delivers a rich dataset of novel gene-enhancer associations providing a basis for future in-depth studies.

Skin-associated bacteria underlie the production of a potent defensive neurotoxin in newts, impacting host physiology, molecular evolution, and predator-prey interactions in a coevolutionary arms race.

The F-box and U-box E3 ubiquitin ligase decoy library is a powerful tool for the functional characterization of redundant E3 ubiquitin ligases, like MAC3A and MAC3B, novel circadian clock regulators.
